A Model Designed to Predict the Motion of Objects Translated by Classical Blast Waves
A theoretical model was developed for the purpose of predicting the motion of objects translated by winds associated with 'classical' blast waves produced by explosions. Among the factors omitted from the model for the sake of simplicity were gravity and the friction that may occur between the displaced object and the surface upon which it initially rested. Numerical solutions were obtained (up to the time when maximum missile velocity occurs) in terms of dimensionless quantities to facilitate application to specific blast situations. The results were computed within arbitrarily chosen limits for blast waves with shock strengths from 0.068 to 1.7 atm (1 to 25 psi at sea level) for displaced objects with aerodynamic characteristics ranging from those of a human being to those of 10-mg stones and for weapon yields at least as small as 1 kt or as large as 20 Mt.
Missile Studies with a Biological Target
Fourteen dogs were exposed on the lee side of planted gravel, of a concrete-block wall, and of glass mounted in the open and in houses to the environmental variations associated with full-scale nuclear detonations. Aluminum foil was used to protect the animals from thermal effects. The feasibility of utilizing missile data, along with other available information from the literature, as a means of quantitatively assessing biologic hazard was established by the close correspondence between observed and predicted dangerous wounds.

Blessed by a Saint
Blessed by a Saint by Gerald L. Bowen, Jr. is a compilation of short stories that, while fiction, are based on real events. These are stories of a family as they go through their everyday life caring for a precious child left severely multi-handicapped, both mentally and physically, after a traumatic birth. What could not be known or understood at the time is what a blessing the child they named Grace would be in their lives, and the lives of others. This angel sent from God achieves so much more than had been hoped and possesses abilities no one could have dreamed. "Grace finds goodness in everything..." from the song "Grace" by U2. This story will touch your heart and, hopefully, will move...
